Scouting report: Jose Rivero

Everything below is derived from Jose's Drive for Five ratings — the same nine attributes that drive the game. Jose is rated 74 overall and plays as a Precision.

Why these ratings

Jose Rivero's profile is defined by driving accuracy (75) — the standout number in the card. As a Precision player, Jose prioritises finding fairways and greens — accuracy 75, iron play 75. That control is gold in foursomes, where mistakes are shared, and on tight courses that punish the crooked driver.

Ryder Cup strengths

Jose's biggest weapons are Accuracy (75) — solid driving accuracy; Irons (75) — below-average iron play; Driving (74) — below-average driving distance. These are the attributes to lean on when picking sessions and pairings.

Weaknesses to manage

The softer spots in the card are Putting (73) and Pressure (73). In match play these are the areas an opponent will target, and the reason pairing Jose with a complementary partner matters.

Best format

On the ratings, Jose's strongest session is the Foursomes. Alternate shot rewards the accuracy and control in this card — a low-mistake game that won’t leave a partner exposed.
